Inspections

Tarrant County Public Health Environmental Health Division is changing the mobile food unit permitting process. Starting Sept. 1, 2023, all mobile food units must have an appointment for permitting. Any vendor seeking a renewal may schedule an appointment 30 days prior to permit expiration. 

Complete the following steps:

Step 1: Schedule an appointment. If you need help completing your application packet, book a "Paperwork Only" consultation.

Step 2: Download the application packet, complete it, and either print it or fill it out digitally using the passkey in your confirmation email. Even with a digital submission, you must bring a printed copy of the completed packet to your appointment.

Step 3: Bring all required items listed in the Mobile Food Unit Checklist  to your appointment. The Commissary Agreement and Commissary Certification must be completed and printed by the relevant third parties before your appointment.

Note: Your application will not be considered complete until the final review during your scheduled appointment.
